Congratulations
Emily & Drew, on being selected to receive the “kewpie.net Scholarship.”This as
you probably already know is the first time it has been given and I hope
it willcontinue
to repeat perpetually if we can raise enough money. The scholarship was
madepossible
by 106 individuals of the 4,613 registered users of www.kewpie.net(The Kewpie
Classmates Association)

My name
is Charley Blackmore I graduated in the Class of 1963 and am the sole proprietorand webmaster
of www.kewpie.net. I have a request to ask of you and hope you will be
ableto help
me. Hopefully you input which I can publish on www.kewpie.net will create
moreinterest
in my scholarship and encourage others to make donations or encourage those
whohave given
to make additional donations. My dream is to establish as many as 6 morescholarships
like the one you just received.

I know this
is the busiest of times for you but if you could email me a brief biography,
somepictures
of yourself and a story about your future plans, you will make me very
happy! Thenas things
progress your keeping in touch with me, through www.kewpie.net to keep
the“Kewpie
Spirit” growing, would make me extremely happy too.

On behalf
of those 106 Kewpies who made this possible, who can be seen by clicking
on“kewpie.net
Scholarship” from the home page www.kewpie.net, I wish you success andhappiness
in all that you are about to pursue now and for your entire future. I am
veryproud of
being a “Kewpie” and very proud of you for being the “1st Kewpie” to receivethis scholarship!

I look forward
to hearing from you as often as you have time to call, email or come by
to visit.Establishing
a long term relationship with you is my dream and I would be honored for
you,if you
are available next year at this time, to join me in presenting this scholarship
to someonelike you
next year!

First off I
want to apologize for getting my letter to you so late! I wrote it in June
and I thoughtI sent it
but I was on your website today and realized, obviously, that I hadn't!
I want you toknow how grateful
I am that I got this award and how much it meant to me. Having been incollege now
for about two weeks, I can honestly say how much I really miss my times
atHickman. I'll
be sending you letters often because I would love to keep in touch! I'm
so sorryagain and
I will be sending pictures also!
